Over the past few days, I've been working to familiarize myself with the various technologies used to implement RESTful web services. After reviewing several different approaches on the web, I decided to annotate my resource objects and return them, allowing Jersey and JAXB to translate the POJO into the appropriate MIME type. I am very impressed with how simple it was to use.
Now that I have a POXy-like attempt at a RESTful web service, I'd like to take it to the next level and apply the premise of HATEOAS. The problem I see, however, is that there is really no way to embed the links necessary to make the generated xml/json file properly descriptive of the actions available in the representation.
What techniques have JAXB users employed to achieve HATEOAS?
